(-)-BICUCULLINE METHOBROMIDE Usage And Synthesis

Uses

(-)-Bicuculline methobromide is an N-methylated derivative of the GABAA?antagonist bicuculline.

Biological Activity

Methobromide salt of (+)-bicuculline ([R-(R*,S*)]-6-(5,6,7,8-Tetrahydro-6-methyl-1,3-dioxolo[4,5-g]isoquinolin-5-yl)furo[3,4-e]-1,3-benzodioxol-8(6H)-one ). Water soluble and more stable than bicuculline. Non-GABA receptor-mediated actions reported.

in vivo

(-)-Bicuculline methobromide can be used in animal modeling to create epilepsy models and is capable of crossing the blood-brain barrier[3].

1. Induction of epilepsy[3]
Background
(-)-Bisculline methoromide can inhibit the synthesis and release of GABA, and weaken GABA's inhibition of neuronal activity in the SN reticular region (SNr), leading to epilepsy.
Specific Mmodeling Methods
Rat: Sprague-Dawley (SD) ? male or female ? 2 weeks old
Administration: 12.5, 25, 50 or 100 ng/0.25 μL ? inject into SN or corpus striatum through bilateral catheter implantation
Note
(1) Dissolve (-)-Bicuculine methoromide in distilled water and administer at a volume of 0.25 μL.
(2) Simultaneously administer bilateral infusions at a rate of 0.25 μ L/min, and after the infusion is completed, insert the catheter in situ for an additional minute to prevent drug reflux.
(3) Due to the short-lived effect of (-) - Bicuculine methoromide in SN, rats were tested 5 minutes after completing the infusion.
Modeling Indicators
Behavioral observation: Shortened the latency period of epileptic seizures, causing stereotyped behaviors such as excessive sniffing or licking, chewing movements, head twitching, and slow or occasional circling.
Correlated Product(s): Muscimol (HY-N2313)
Opposite Product(s): /

Animal Model:Rat L5-SNL model[2]
Dosage:0.6 nmol/rat
Administration:Intrathecal injection, 5 minutes before administration of Neurotropin (100 NU/kg, i.v.)
Result:Attenuated the antiallodynic effect of Neurotropin.
